Since they spend most of the summer in fish pots they really didn't grow much the last couple of years, but oh my.... did they grow just this spring, they split and ate the baskets, small hexagon size ones. To get them loose I had to destroy the basket the rest of the way. The very last one I gave up as I had plenty plus from the 1st two. The pots by the front door now are sporting the iris and the floating islands in 2 of the pots, the 3rd pot I decided to do iris and one of the canna divides. I'm in for a snack and then back out to do more iris wrestling, the lily pond ones. Those won't be so bad... and the yellow one out there, I'm seriously thinking of not putting it back in. Just how much yellow iris does one pond person need? ;-) ~ jan ------------ Zone 7a, SE Washington State Ponds: www.jjspond.us |
